It seems problem in mixing. Guitars sound a bit muddy and indistinct. Is it vst? if live - try to rewrite with commercial sound.

#5

dont know how to respond to this! these are real guitars ! the same guitars i am writing last 2 years on AJ ! supposed to be muddy ! its a Southern Hard rock track. and mixing problems.? dont think so

ps. Gibson Explorer -> Eleven rack + Rickenbacker -> Eleven Rack + Steven Slate

Hmm, seems strange that this track would get rejected. Perhaps it was a mistake. I would try contacting support to get a second opinion.

Envato have raised benchmark of quality again. I agree that one can find fault in anything. May be mistake.

Hello Mate and other Authors,
I hear something was not right on the groove of this track. Itā€™s should be a little Swing feel right? Maybe iā€™m wrong.
But Itā€™s not smooth on my ears.
Thanks.

LongXmusic is right about swing feel, but itā€™s a matter of taste not musical mistake. Good track, nothing wrong with it. I would follow Aurus advise.

Good track, but as someone said there are some minor problems with mix (minor - comparing to audio jungle average level). Some other reviewers probably could accept this track. But still - guitars heve a lot of low and low middle band (they are muddy), I hear it very clear on headphones in ā€œleft and rightā€ side individually (!). Low band should be more mono then stereo. You can try just eq-ing them. Also rhythmic guitars are little too loud.

Other trick is to add another guitar playing riff on the top or playing solo - it could blend mix better and make whole track more ā€œnarrativeā€ and dynamic.

IMHO of course :slight_smile: But donā€™t worry, this track is ok, especially composition!

Nothing wrong actually, maybe just a reviewerā€™s bad day? :stuck_out_tongue:
I donā€™t know if it will change anything, but maybe you could contact support. Or hope the team will read this post :smile:

Nothing wrong with this track, maybe just too hard for aj :wink::wink:

The only thing I can think of is that the bass is a bit loose, mostly in the beginning (still ok for rock as far as Iā€™m concerned), but maybe reviewers ears are getting a bit too much used to daws and vstā€™s robotic precision?
